GRADUATE INSOLVENCY PROGRAMME:
An Industry Initiative
The Graduate Insolvency Programme (GIP) is the first of its kind programme for those aspiring to take up the
discipline of insolvency professional as a career or seeking to take up other roles in the value chain, in India
and in foreign jurisdictions. A student who completes the GIP will be eligible for registration as insolvency
professional under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016, without having to wait to acquire the 10-year
experience as required by the Code at present.

For those aspiring to become in-house counsels or serve as advisors to stakeholders in insolvency,
liquidation, bankruptcy or turnaround process, the GIP will benefit at entry level and in career growth. The
GIP will also be great value to those who elect to become insolvency or restructuring professionals or join
academics or research in the field of insolvency.

An insolvency professional, serving as a licenced practitioner or in any other capacity, needs not only the
domain knowledge but also a range of skills, multiple abilities and extra-ordinary qualities. It also needs a fair
degree of appreciation of cultures, social and other factors surrounding an insolvency proceeding. An
insolvency professional also has ethical and moral obligations. The GIP offers all that the market expects
from a high-quality insolvency professional. A student can also start earning in the second year.

Recognised by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India and curated by a group comprising eminent
economists, insolvency, financial, legal and other experts, GIP is designed to provide exposure to real-time
situations and on-ground training. The programme offers opportunities to work with leading insolvency
professionals and other stakeholders providing the graduates the skill and experience that will help them to
take their career to the next level and increase marketability to employers.

 MESSAGE

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (Code) is a

transformational law. It provides a market mechanism for time-
bound resolution of insolvencies of corporate persons, partnership
firms and individuals. Implementation of such a state-of-the-art
insolvency law rests on the shoulders of the professionals, led by an
insolvency professional, who steers the processes under the Code as
well as guides the stakeholders for arriving at legally compliant and
most efficient market outcomes.

An insolvency professional is a key institution of the insolvency

regime. He is the beacon of hope for the person in financial distress
and its stakeholders. He plays a key role in insolvency proceedings
(resolution, liquidation and bankruptcy processes) of financially
distressed persons (companies, limited liability partnerships,
partnership and proprietorship firms and individuals)under the
Code.

An individual is eligible for registration as an insolvency professional

if he has ten years of post-membership experience as a Chartered
Accountant, Company Secretary, Cost Accountant, or Advocate, or
Dr. M.S. Sahoo has 15 years of experience in management after bachelor's degree.
Chairperson However, an individual, who has completed the Graduate Insolvency
Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India Programme (GIP) approved by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board
of India, is also eligible for registration as an insolvency professional.
This enables young and bright minds, having a professional
qualification or master's degree in specified subjects, but not having
the required experience, to complete the GIP and become an
insolvency professional.

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India has approved the GIP
offered by the Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs. The first batch of
GIP commenced on 1st July, 2019 with 37 students. On completion of
the course work, these students are currently undergoing internship
at cutting edge professional firms. The second batch commenced on
1st July, 2020 with 40 students. I am happy that the pass outs from top
tier Institutes are enrolling for GIP. I am confident that pass outs of
GIP would add tremendous value to the insolvency ecosystem and
contribute to its further development.

 MESSAGE

Over a period of time, the Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs

(IICA) has evolved as a blended think tank engaging in policy
research, training and academics. We offer a blend of educational
excellence and real-world experience and for this we rely on our
unique IICA way of learning, which marries excellence with impact.

part of GIP. Moreover, the GIP contains preparatory, specialized

Insolvency Research Foundation (IRF) has been established by IICA, in partnership with SIPI, an insolvency think tank, as an
independent research centre to serve public good and help in robust policy making based on deep research.

IRF also aims to develop a community in pursuit of scholarship in the field of insolvency. It will seek to strengthen the

scholars and a robust network of academics, scholars and jurists in the area of insolvency.

RESIDENTIAL CLASS ROOM PROGRAMME

Preparatory Phase
The preparatory phase provides GIP students with a strong base of knowledge that will enable them to adapt to changing
conditions including the dynamic insolvency and bankruptcy regime in India. Moreover, the students will be able to appreciate
and apply the specialized courses in insolvency and bankruptcy that follow the Preparatory phase.

within which insolvency professionals are required to operate. This will empower GIP students to “hit the ground running” for
their internships. The IPs gain as much practical experience as possible and would make the students employable in any
sphere of the insolvency ecosystem, and fulfill a key objective of the Code: 'producing a cadre of top-quality IPs who can deliver
world-class services as resolution professionals, liquidators, or in other capacities…'P

Personality Development.
The Personality Development phase focuses on developing all-round personality of the students. Some of the topics covered
are, Leadership, Problem Solver: Data Analysis, Consensus Building and Negotiation, Communication / Writing Skills,
Grooming / Persona / Gravitas, Thought Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, Self-Management, Time Management, Dealing
with Stakeholders, Ethics and managing moral dilemmas and Assessment and readiness for internship.

LEARNING AND EXPERIENCES

Diksha Sharma | International Asset Reconstruction Company Private Limited

The best parts of my internship are the exposure to buy-side activities in the distressed
ecosystem and opportunity to work with the firm’s core-investment team. This allows me to
explore and learn with a completely different outlook. It helps me see, first-hand, why the
market prefers IBC and the constant need to keep this economic law in-line with needs of the
evolving market.

Sarthak Ohri | Deloitte

Interning at Deloitte has been an enriching experience. The organisation was well aware of our
learning objectives which were reassessed every month to ensure that the training goes as per
the schedule. I was part of two projects. In one project I got an opportunity to work with an
Insolvency Professional and in the other project I worked with a resolution applicant.

Archit Gupta | Grant Thornton Restructuring Services LLP

Interning at firm like Grant Thornton, which is well established in insolvency space, has given
me an exposure which is unparellel in terms of A-Z of the corporate insolvency regime as
sought to be established by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code. This exposure along with
guidance by colleagues and seniors  in the firm has immeasurably added to my learnings of
the insolvency regime.

Rishika Raj | ASC Group

“My internship experience has been exhilarating. Working on live projects has improved my
learning curve as well given me practical insights of the insolvency eco-system. The firm has
constantly mentored in bridging the gap between the theoretical knowledge and practical
experience. The work exposure has enhanced my knowledge in the insolvency domain.”

Kunal Phatangare | Duff and Phelps

“Interning at Duff and Phelps has been a great experience. The company has indeed afforded
me the required all-round exposure to enter into the comprehensive insolvency ecosystem as a
trained professional.”
